No Way Back: A Personal History of Charismatic Renewal in the New Zealand Anglican Church

Don Battley

Paperback 2019-10-01

Publisher Description

No Way Back is the heartfelt story of an Anglican priest deeply impacted by the charismatic movement as it swept through New Zealand in the late twentieth century. Having lived through all the stages of the movement, Don Battley takes the reader inside the personal experiences of those enfolded in the excitement of a vibrant faith, and shows how they negotiated the tensions that arose within established Anglican culture. It is a story of faith and enterprise; of young leaders seeking to renew their church and restore confident Christianity in a time of uncertainty; and of the hope that those leaders now hand on to a new generation. This intimate memoir expresses the confidence that, in the face of opposition and changing times, God will never abandon the Church.
